Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai on Saturday launched the Har Ghar Tiranga campaign in Karnataka, on the steps of the Vidhana Soudha as part of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav celebrations, and said the government had distributed 1.25 crore flags for free cost across the State.
“The tricolour is a symbol of national pride for the entire country. The programme envisages inspiring Indians everywhere to hoist the national flag at their home,” Mr. Bommai said.
Speaking at the function organised by the Kannada and Culture Department, the Chief Minister called upon the youth to come forward to build a strong and glorious India. “‘Country first, we come later,’ should be the motto,” he said, urging all to eschew narrow and selfish interests to serve the country.
